Walking Dead Convention Unveils Line-up Changes

A handful of last-minute line-up changes have been announced across next month’s Sydney and Melbourne Walker Stalker events.

The highly anticipated debut of the Walking Dead convention kicks off next week, and while headliner Norman Reedus (aka Daryl Dixon) has had to withdraw due to filming commitments, a handful of other fan favourites have joined the bill, including Steven Ogg (Simon) and Pollyanna McIntosh (Jadis).

“I tried and was really hoping to get there. We are starting filming for RIDE now and I promise that will be awesome,” Reedus said.

In addition to that, Tyler James Williams (Noah), IronE Singleton (T-Dog) and the show’s executive producer, director and special effects creator, Greg Nicotero, will make appearances across both cons, while Seth Gilliam (Father Gabriel) will make the trip to Melbourne.

Other changes include Christian Serratos (Rosita Espinosa) and Cooper Andrews (Jerry) also cancelling due to unforeseen scheduling conflicts and Chandler Riggs appearing at Sydney only.

Given the show’s recent mid-season finale, there’ll be plenty of heated talking points across various panels. There’ll also be a stack of autograph and photo opps, vendors, cosplay and more.
